He genuinely liked the motorcycle. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have accepted the gift from Chen Lan, even though he already had a girlfriend. So, he was unwilling to return it now. After all, he couldn’t afford to buy one himself.

However, he also understood the power of rumors. While most people were willing to believe him given Chen Lan’s past actions, he knew that where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Since he aspired to be promoted in the future, he couldn’t afford any stains on his record.

“It’s true that I didn’t manage to gather that much money. I wanted to discuss this with you today, but our conversation got interrupted. So, as agreed, I’ll return the motorcycle to you. However, the motorcycle is not at the military base. I’ll ride it over and send it to your place another day. How about that?” Liang Chen asked.

“No problem. But don’t deliver it to my home. Men and women should keep their distance. Just give it to our Ahye.”

Chen Lan admired Liang Chen’s patience and reminded herself to be cautious around such individuals.

Nonetheless, she was quite happy to have her belongings returned by someone she disliked. She wiped away her tears, walked past Liang Chen and Sun Zhi, and left without saying another word.

Sun Zhi spat on the ground as he watched Chen Lan’s departing figure. “Ahchen, I think she’s out for revenge on you. You can’t give things back to her.”

Liang Chen shook his head with a responsible look on his face. Losing the motorcycle was frustrating, but Chen Lan repeatedly referring to ‘our Ahye’ was even more annoying.

“As you said, she’s shameless. She might cause a scene at the camp anytime, and I have no evidence to prove that she willingly gave it to me. It’ll ruin my reputation. It’s just a motorcycle; returning it to her won’t cost me much.”

Though Sun Zhi was impulsive, he wasn’t foolish. He knew that Liang Chen was right. No matter what, even if they could prove that the motorcycle was a gift from her, accepting such a valuable gift for no apparent reason would still invite gossip.

“You’re just too honest, and that’s why you’re being bullied by such a shameless person. Ahcong is kind too, and both of you will suffer in the future. No, I have to talk to Tang Ye.”

“What for?” Liang Chen asked.

“I want to ask him if a battalion commander can manage his wife and stop letting such a woman come over to harass you!”

After his statement, Sun Zhi shook off Liang Chen’s hand and strode into the military compound. As he passed the entrance, he even gave a menacing glare to the soldiers on duty.

Liang Chen hurriedly followed.

Meanwhile, on the training field inside the military compound, Tang Ye stood in front of a group of soldiers, his expression cold.

“Stand up straight. Don’t you want to eat lunch?”

Under the scorching sun, the young soldiers dared not voice their anger and had no choice but to persevere.

Originally, the training program for the day was supposed to be easy. Who could have anticipated that their newlywed battalion commander would return? Upon his return, they would be subjected to a variety of high-intensity training as punishment for asking for wedding candies. It was simply unreasonable.

Secretly, they couldn’t help but wonder if their battalion commander’s performance last night had been subpar and had been kicked out of bed by his wife, causing him to vent his frustration on them today.

“Report!”

Liu Ming rushed over with the candies in hand, panting slightly as he looked at Tang Ye’s frosty face. His heart trembled with fear.

“Didn’t I assign you to stand guard at the entrance?” Tang Ye gave him a sidelong glance before shifting his gaze back to the formation.

“Reporting to the Battalion Commander, sister-in-law, I mean, the Battalion Commander’s wife asked me to bring in the wedding candies to distribute to everyone?”

As soon as the words were spoken, Tang Ye’s gaze, which had just moved away, instantly snapped back, filled with disbelief, and he remained momentarily unresponsive.

It was the political commissar, sitting in the shade under a tree, who broke the silence. “Dismissed! Dismissed! Liu Ming, quickly, give me a few pieces first, then take them down and distribute them to everyone.”

Upon hearing this, the soldiers who had been standing at attention moments ago immediately collapsed to the ground. After Liu Ming handed the candies to the political commissar, Yu Yi, they wasted no time in surrounding him again, shouting, “Long live the Battalion Commander’s wife!”

Yu Yi unwrapped a candy and popped it into his mouth before walking over to Tang Ye, offering him one, and patting him on the shoulder. “Isn’t this great?”

While the young soldiers might not have known, Yu Yi was well-informed about Chen Lan’s situation and understood why he returned to the base empty-handed after his wedding.

He did not expect Chen Lan to come and deliver the candies personally, but it also indicated that his good friend’s newlywed life might not be as bad as he had imagined.

Tang Ye accepted the candy and held it in his hand, clenched it in his hands. He seemed to be lost in thought and smiled.
